		Biography

		Formed
in summer 2004 by 4 veterans of the local experimental music
scene:Astrid Proll adds up to the new local avant-garde musical
movement with a challenging and broad sound. The innevitable conclusion
of more than 15 years of musical career. Agustin "Chito" Criollo on
Bass guitar, Synths and Vocals; Georgie Castro-Ramirez on Guitars and
Alto Sax; Andres Lugo on Synths, Prepared Guitars and Percussion and
Fernando Rosado on Drums and Percussion compose this already infamous
quartet of Experiemental Prog-Psyche Rock band. It is intended that
Astrid Pröll's musical proposal, at times chaotic at times apocalyptic,
mirrors the social and political reality that surrounds it. Their debut
CD, released on the local indie label Noisex Records, depicts the
cornerstone of all future AP's recordings blending some of the most
visible influences of tha band together in a "Hallucinating Journey of
Epic Proportions through Frenetic Rythms and Blissfull Noise..." This
is only the beginning of a new cicle for these not-so-new performers
from the local scene. An innevitable evolution towards a musical
territory much more faithful to their music's reality. The developing
of a work space that will be able to integrate the artist and his
endevour. Be that as it may, we will always know it as Astrid Pröll.
